All the car reviews have cars sliding around corners. It looks like a lot of fun, but is this the fastest way around a track? My car is a "momentum" car, so maybe I don't get it.
BTW Great video!

Doesn't matter the BHP, all that sliding on tarmac is the slow way around. More fun, but slow...

I once suggested to the UCR track team that we do the odd drifting day. Five minutes on the skid pad during a one-day IDS (Introductory Driving School) didn't in my opinion, adequately prepare a student for that inevitable over-steer, typically followed by poor counter-lock steering and throttle input. They poo-pooed the idea.

Very enjoyable post! Thanks.
Not surprised at his conclusions. Both are great cars but the 991 is in a different pool. The Vet is great value compared to a 911. The 991/ 911 is great value in comparison to cars that cost over 1/2 a million.
